Player Base Busting Event

Player Base Busting Event


On Saturday, January 5th, at 5PM EST (check your local time here (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Player+Base+Busting+Event&iso=20121230T17&p1=896)), an event will be held on Test Center Nova in order to test different aspects of the faction bases and overall server stability before they they can be added to Basilisk.


Everyone is welcome to join. There is a Character builder terminals aka Blue frog in every NPC city so you should be able to fix or build your templates and buff up before the event. Decent armor and weapons, food and poisons too will be provided as well.

Imperial players will meet up in front of the city hall at Thunderdome
Rebels will meet up at the city hall in Land of Yore.
Feel free to reply to this thread if you are going to attend. Team would like to have a head count by Thursday, January 3rd to make sure they have enough armor and weapons for everyone. Please post your faction, character name and what weapon you would prefer. Of course you are still welcome to participate even if you don't inform as in advance.

We will need someone to lead the rebels and someone to lead the imperials.
Round one will be a pvp in a neutral area the winner will get to choose whether they would like to attack or defend the base for second round.
After the event, we invite you all to please stick around for an open discussion on the state of the bases, and a feedback session with members of QA. We still encourage you to report any findings you have of bugs/exploits/things that are wrong on here (http://www.swgemu.com/bugs/login_page.php), but we would love to hear from you live after the event has ended.



Event Rules:



No bystanders during the event! The only people permitted to watch the event are the QA and EC staff.
No outside heals. No outside resurrections. All healers involved in the PVP will be responsible for the healing. There will be no doctors/Combat Medics’s running around with the event healing while covert. You will be flagged Overt.
This event is a testing event held with hopes of receiving feedback from players in regards to faction bases. The better the feedback we get the sooner we can get bases pushed to the Basilisk server for the entire community. A few items to note during the event are:
Turrets only attack moving players. Covert scanners are not functional yet.
Skill specific Terminals are usable by any profession EXCEPT Smuggler Terminal (Security) which requires Novice smuggler. (Laser knives will be provided. If you wish to use clamps or nodes you will have to get your own.)
Identical sets of Powerups, Foods, Drinks, Spices and Combat Medic Poisons and Diseases will be available on vendors in both cities. Buy only what you need. Leave enough for the next player. Vendor sales of these items will be monitored by QA for buyouts. Credits are free on Nova via Blue Frog. No need to horde.
Armor and weapons will be provided at the best of our ability. Over 80 matching sets of Composite armor are available to each faction. All weapons and armor are pre-sliced. If you don’t like the stats you were welcome and encouraged to come early and make your own.

Please remember that bugs are expected. Report anything you find here (http://www.swgemu.com/bugs/login_page.php), and if you don't know how to report bugs, you can find more info here (http://www.swgemu.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22463).


Hope to see you all there.

^^ anyone new to base busting needs to take a look at this base busting FAQ so you'll have an idea what to do, know that for the time being for ease of testing none of the profession checks are in place, anyone can bust a base.. But whoever will be slicing the security terminal will need novice smuggler to be able to use the precision laser knives (which we can supply) to slice the security terminal and proceed with the bust.

We are looking forward to seeing all of you over on nova, i can guarantee this will be a great event for the community and a great help to us who are working to restore the game to how it was before :) Thank you all! :D

Anyone wishing to create a Trandoshan character for this event please post in this thread or contact QA on Nova so that appropriate armor can me made.

Pixie and Muon will be provided.

Non-combat players are urged to attend. Med centers and cantinas will be in both cities. Foods will be provided for them as well.

Devs who care about SWG's most powerful and unique feature as much as the players do?

THE MAYANS WERE RIGHT! The "IRL server" goes offline tomorrow, was fun everyone.

------

Looking forward to this event. I'll be contacting some old Sunrunner friends and enemies to get them on to "expose bugs". Trust me, if a bug exists you'll know. ;)

In the meantime, looking for an imp buddy on test to test out stopping a countdown, and bugging the terms so they cant be sliced. Send a mail on Nova to Haleigh.

I will wait to pick a faction to see which side outnumbers the other to try to compensate. I love you SWGEmu team, I truly do.

Just some notes on the bases.

* Not all features are implemented yet.
* No skill checks on the terminals except for the smuggler term.
* Minefields just spawn with the base.
* Minefields can't be donated or destroyed yet.
* Mines CAN be donated when purchased from the recruiter. You add mines to the minefield by donating them at the HQ terminal.
* The DNA term only requires 10 matches to complete.
* NPCs don't spawn yet with the base
* Skill enhancements are not yet applied
* Some of the terminals are not yet populated
* Covert detectors are disabled.

Here is what the minigames look like if you have never seen them.

Doc is not required to bust a base atm. Novice Smuggler (to use clamps and knives) is the only skill required for testing puposes.

Also FYI to ALL.

Need armor preference and Weapon preference from people! so we know what we need to have. The date has been pushed back to January the 5th at 5PM est as well!

Edit: Within reason on the requests. Dont have the time or resources to make uber weapons and armor for all. Will be good but not the best by far on the weapons and armor. Just need Stun or Kin preference, and what weapon you prefer to use in PVP.

Beenieweenie
12-28-2012, 06:01 PM
Just a friendly thought; the time was pushed back however the home page's date is still the same. Just pointing this out so it can be fixed to avoid confusion! :)

Kezzar
12-28-2012, 09:01 PM
As Naik0i pointed out, we need any special armor requests posted here, messaged to me, or sent via in-game e-mail to me (Poge Darmic). We have red and blue mini-suits (helm, boots, chest, and gloves) for Rebels and Imperials respectively, with Kin/Kin/Stun layers. If you want anything special or need some armor for another race, contact me. If you want different stats, I need to know quickly, so I can get them together. If you send it last minute, I'll see what I can do, but I may get swamped, so try and get it to me as early as possible.

I want to thank everyone that attended. The turn out was great and the battles were ruthless. Dead bodies everywhere.

As far as the test. Amazing success. A lot of good feeback from players. The bases worked as intended (in its test version) with a few minor details to sort out.

Kudos to all those who made this possible. The list is long.

10 years, and still there is nothing that fuels PVP like SWG's factional bases.

Nothing comes even close.

I watched last night as the mature members of the test community degenerated into a bloodthirsty zombie horde bent on ridding the galaxy of the other half.

We tried really hard to stage a countdown timer "reset" for testing purposes, to no avail. People just couldn't stop killing each other. Not even the Gorax and NS Elders and Deathwatches and AT ATs could distract the combatants ...

It was a beautiful thing! (Brought a tear to my eye.)





Oh and I got FRAPS ... HOURS of FRAPS. And it is all so good, I am going to put together a video that shows the intensity of the battle at its key points.

My most watched SWG video "War Is Coming (http://www.kissmybuns.net/videos.htm#wariscoming)" was a preview of the return of player bases, with nearly 10,000 full downloads and an event very much like this one. Time for a sequel imo.

I can't say enough to thank everyone, devs, testers, for putting so much work into these bases, you all rock. Specially Amber, she made the ultimate sacrifice (going imp)

Couldnt have said it any better.. Thank you so much to everyone that came out and everyone that helped us make this event possible! Look for more in the future, this wont be the only time we have a base event on Nova before it's pushed to Bas! :D

Thanks to everyone that has gave input and dug up information.

Thanks also to everyone who has spent a lot of time testing this feature. A lot of people have put in a lot of time finding bugs.

Thanks to everyone who came out and let us test with more people.

Still a ways to go to get it right but I think we're getting there.

If you have anything that you feel needs to be tweaked/fixed/changed, please open a ticket.

This is cool don't get me wrong but maybe fixing the stormtroopers so they dont kill nonfactioned players would have been a good thing to do before making bases .

Confirmed. I was the one dead trying to push the button. loldid you try it after you already had the box open? Cause if i rememeber right if you had the window open before you died you still could shut it down even if you were dead as long as you had the box open before you took your death.

Box open? Are we talking about "Starting the countdown"? It's an option on the radial menu wish closes when the 'Activate Clone' window appears. Should it be differant? Any screens would be helpful.

Any screens would be helpful.Not sure i never actually did the shut down...though i remember being part of many takedowns back in the day and there was an exploit you could use that as long as the window was up while you were still alive even if you died you could wait til the countdown was at a few seconds and then shut off the timer so that even if it was reactivated you could minimize the times the opposite side had to restart the timer and save your base.

Pretty much all you had to do was make it into the base and pull up the option on the menu before you died...Granted i do not know if it was a radial or a blue box one but the key was to keep that box open as long as possible then at the last few seconds of the timer hit the switch as to run out as much time as possible in the hours your base was vulnerable so you weren't constantly having to defend the base. What this would do would allow your dead corpse be in the base monitor the situation and allow you to turn it off at your will.

This is where alot of people used the swoop bike exploit to get into the base and shut off the timer. You'd fly in on your swoop and even if they attacked the swoop and blew it up you would still get into the base with out a problem cause of the rubberbanding bug then all ya had to do was pull up the option before you died and just sit and wait to shut it off. Both sides used it repeatedly on corbantis.

It was a radial. YOu could bring it up on live even after you died. I'm sure this was fixed at some time though. I tried this myself trying to abort a shutdown in progress.

If you died while it was up it was ok as long as you were alive when you first clicked on it you'd still be able to shut it off. You couldn't do it if you were already dead. Just tryin to cover the basis so its not a problem in the future lol

That's pretty much exactly how it was done every time.
